Actually, it is apparent that he did indeed read it and presented very valid arguments. Everything Hiroradius said is true. Especially, about the DF giving you twp "supporters" in the 2 DPS slots which would make for one hell of a long dungeon with the lack of real DPS. In longer fights MNKs already have a very high hate level even if the Tank is doing everything perfectly. Making them hit harder would make that worse. You address this with the hate generating ability for tank support but you pretty much limit yourself to having to have that tank hate up ability active 100% of the time if you are boosting DPS.

I miss my BRD from FFXI (from the old days) but in this game with 4 man content a support class that is classified as a DPS will only hurt the game. And splitting the DF to take one of each also will never be an option cause of all the DPS classes we have and the long waits already.
